Our host was excellent, he gave history of whisky and history of Edinburgh. It was so well plotted out, we went to old town and new town establishments. Thoroughly enjoyed this whisky experience. Well done Laurie

Whisky Tasting

Vamsi_D, Sep 2024

This was a great experience. Stephen was very informative and very delightful. He provided us with a wonderful experience of whisky tasting and while also providing us with history and/or origins of each bottle. If you are a whisky lover, try this, you will love it as much as did

Very nice tour through different parts of Edinburgh, visiting 5 pubs with various tasting experiences.

Fantastic whiskey walking tour

Laurel_H, Dec 2022

This was great and our guide Allen was terrific! I took my mother to get her acquainted with the city of Edinburgh and whiskey. We ended up with a very well organized private tour. Allen was friendly & fun and a wealth of knowledge on so many things, including of course Edinburgh, history and whiskey. We had a great time! So much more than just a whiskey tour. So nice to get out and walk and see different parts of the city. Would highly recommend for any age group.

Super netter Guide mit einem enormen Wissen nicht nur über Whiskey sondern auch über die Stadt. Super interessante Tour mit tollen Pubs und Whiskeys. Würden wir jederzeit wieder machen!
